Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

At 3 pm Friday, outside Hogwarts Castle.

According to the original curriculum of Hufflepuff College, Elena should appear on the side of the Quidditch field at this time, preparing to start a weekly flight lesson with the little wizards of Ravenclaw.

However, judging from the current situation, she obviously has to be absent again this week's flight class-although in the words of Mrs. Huo Qi, Elena doesn't need to take this class anymore, she flies bigger Some seventh graders are okay.

"That ... Professor Binns is okay?"

Standing on the long bridge in front of the gate of Hogwarts Castle, Elena glanced at the serious Dumbledore beside her and asked cautiously, "I didn't expect it before, but I asked a few more questions. , The professor will become weaker ... "

"This is not a question of good or bad. Professor Binns is now in a ... well, rather special state."

Dumbledore rubbed his eyebrows, shook his head helplessly, and sighed softly.

"I've seen so many documents about" Hogwarts, a piece of school history ", I think you already know it. When Hogwarts was founded, Professor Binns's history of magic was once famous for humor and fun. , Only gradually became what it is now after becoming a ghost. "

Long time is the most deadly poison in the world.

Even Nick Lemer and his wife have become tired of their own lives, not to mention that Professor Bins has existed more than several times as long as Nick Lemer—a metaphor for comparison is that before Professor Bins Actively entered the low-power energy-saving mode, and Elena's problems and behavior happened to reactivate the old professor.

"Unsurprisingly, when Professor Binns returns next week, perhaps the history of magic will become interesting again. This is also thanks to the help of Miss Caslana ... but, in the future, try not to toss that person too much Old professor. "

When Dumbledore spoke here, he glanced at Elena meaningfully.

"I'm not just asking questions, but also including some strange inducements and hints ... Ghosts are not really immortal, in some cases, ghosts that can't use magic are more vulnerable than wizards."

Dumbledore has always been confused about how Professor Binns discovered the Slytherin Chamber.

From the ghost of Myrtle to the bathroom, from the question of Salazar Slytherin to the obsession of Professor Binns, from the abnormality of Tom Riddle to the description of the basilisk, even if all the chains of evidence are linked The interlocking logic forms a closed loop, but Dumbledore ’s intuition can still clearly perceive the first pusher hidden behind the scenes.

"Hey, I'm not worried about you."

Elena uttered her tongue and smiled and shrunk behind Gellert Grindelwald, who was watching the play silently.

In fact, from the beginning, she never thought of hiding Albus Dumbledore completely.

The biggest advantage of working with smart people is that as long as the goals and demands of the two sides are consistent, then many things can be mixed in a silent tacit understanding-to clear out the instability in the school and help Haig scrub the crimes, these All are what Dumbledore wants to see.

As for where Elena knew all this, it was not so important for Dumbledore.

Whether it comes from reasoning, or the strange entanglement of the castle, some pure blood families related to Slytherin, and even the prognostic talents that may exist in the bloodline ... as long as the three unbreakable vows are still imprinted on Elena's hand , Then the interests of girls and Hogwarts will always stand in the same camp.

"So, Albus, how long are we still standing here silly?"

Grindelwald raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look at Dumbledore, with a trace of disdain on his face, "After so many years, it seems that the Ministry of Magic's attitude towards you still has considerable room for improvement."

"On this matter, our views have always been different ..."

Dumbledore shrugged noncommittally, took a pocket watch from his pocket and glanced, "If nothing else, they are already on the road-welcome to Hogwarts, Mr. Minister."

As the voice of the old wizard fell, a chunky and middle-aged wizard appeared in front of the three.

Cornelius Fudge, now the British Minister of Magic, still has the same hodgepodge of clothes as before: pinstripe suit, bright red tie, black long cloak, purple pointed boots, dark green A bowler hat and a large roll of parchment under his arm.

"Oh, Professor Dumbledore, sorry, I might be a little late."

Connelly Fudge said, raising the large roll of parchment sandwiched under his arm and waving, "You know, find a file decades ago, and let the members of Wisengama Signing a change opinion on it is a thankless task. "

Since the existence of the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets was confirmed, and after a trace of the basilisk activity was detected, the Ministry of Magic's accusation against Hagrid was naturally not established more than ten years ago, and the revocation of the judgment is also a matter of course.

"Hard work, Connelly, and thank you gentlemen for your cooperation."

Dumbledore nodded with a smile, "At least this way, there is one more person in this world who suffers injustice. Let's go quickly, or Hagrid may rush to the floor quickly."

"This is what our Ministry of Magic should do." Connelly Fudge nodded politely, glanced at Elena standing behind Mr. "Otto", and asked with some doubt, "However, this child ... "

"This kid is a friend of Rube Hagrid and the chef of Hogwarts. This time there are some questions about ingredients that need to be helped by Hagrid, so I simply followed us."

Dumbledore waved his hand and explained incomparably, "This kind of happy moment, I do n’t think Hagrid would mind minding one more person to share happiness together-you know, he has been waiting for this day for nearly fifty Years. "

There is no doubt that for Ruber Hagrid, 1942 is definitely the worst year in life.

In this year, the Chamber of Secrets was opened by Tom Riddle, who had not turned into a nostril, and the death of Myrtle was blamed on Hagrid, causing him to be expelled from Hogwarts and banned from holding it again. The magic wand, and in the same year, Hagrid also lost his father, which caused him to almost stop his path to learning magic.

If anyone in this school wants to discover the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, it is Ruber Hagrid.

At 3:05 pm, after finally waiting for Cornel Fudge ’s pardon document, Elena and her grandparents left the castle and walked across the empty forest farm towards the small cabin where Hagrid lives.

There was a light rain in the sky, showing a very refreshing light gray, and the air was filled with a pleasant aroma of grass. Elena turned her head and looked at the direction of the Quidditch Stadium on the other side of the castle-now this time The flight lesson has already started, and it feels good to skip the lesson in front of the principal.

Higer's log cabin is located on the edge of the forbidden forest. A giant crossbow used for hunting and guards and a set of non-slip rubber overshoes for small dolphins are hung in front of the door all year round. Today, there is a small newly reclaimed vegetable field beside the log cabin, which is a private vegetable garden dedicated to Hogwarts staff.

According to the usual situation, the three-headed dog Luwei will lie in the open space beside the vegetable garden to drive out crows and "stealers."

However, considering that Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge will come here to visit today, at the suggestion of Dumbledore, Luwei returned to the castle temporarily and continued to guard the trappings leading to the magic stone The door-after all, a **** three-headed dog blazing with blue fire may be a little too exciting for this Mr. Minister.

Although it seems to Elena, there is nothing strange about this.

Know that most non-magic farms and pastures will also keep several similar large dogs to help the owners guard the land and animals, but the dogs in the magic world are only a little bigger.

Crossed the lush vegetable garden, behind which was Hagrid ’s cabin.

Elena saw the Hagrid standing at the door of the hut from a distance, like a hill, constantly looking towards here.

Unlike usual, Hagrid did not wear his thick moleskin coat, but instead wore an oversized Gryffindor College wizard robe, which was somewhat old but well-preserved-with the With the passage of time, the gold-red color above has long been dim and white, but the majestic lion emblem on Hagrid ’s chest is enough to explain what this is.

For the first time, Elena saw the uneasy and expectant look on Hagrid's face, just like the expressions of the first-year little wizards at the opening of the school branch. The little giant was twisting extremely nervously With both hands and dark face, a faint glow of redness could be seen.

Is different from the lightly written apology and erasure verdict in the original book.

Thanks to Elena ’s extra instructions, coupled with Grindelwald ’s superb negotiations, this time Connelly Fudge brought more than just a “suspected clearance” message, but also the Wiesengamo court Co-signed documents, permission to possess a wand issued by the Ministry of Magic, and ... a notice of resumption of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

"Okay, okay, Hagrid, I think you don't want to listen to any polite words."

Connelly Fudge quickly walked through the pile of gravel behind the vegetable garden and smiled and waved parchment to Hagrid.

"Although it may be a few decades later, from now on, you are once again a recognized official wizard. At the same time, if you do n’t mind, you can continue to complete the school that you did not finish at Hogwarts. ……Oh."

Not waiting for Fudge to finish his speech, I saw a huge black hound pounced out of Hagrid's back and stood hostilely in front of Hagrid, barking towards the Minister of Magic who was approaching quickly.

"Yaya, don't be excited, don't be excited. This time they are good people."

After glancing at Connelly Fudge, Hagrid patted the forehead awkwardly, and came over and dragged the hound behind him, rubbing his hands vigorously, eyes like black beetles kept in Fudge's hands. Rolling on parchment.

this time? !

Connelly Fudge raised his eyebrows almost inaudibly, selectively ignoring the offense in Hagrid's words.

"This is very rare, Hagrid." Fudge said in a crisp and quick tone. "You must know that this is almost unprecedented in the entire magic world. The collective signing of the Wiesengama court admits the mistake, for a few The case of ten years ago, if it were not for Professor Dumbledore ’s persistence, and the threat that may exist in this Chamber ... "

"So, have you checked everything? Mr. Minister, Professor."

Hagrid looked at Connelly Fudge and Dumbledore again, and asked with anticipation.

"Find who did it then ?! If you need to identify or arrest, I can!"

"I'm sorry, there is no news for now, this needs the help of the Ministry of Magic."

Dumbledore shook his head, a flash of light flashed in his blue eyes, frowning.

"But one thing is clear, as ... well, your life is determined, you will definitely not be the one who opened the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets. As I have said all these years, I trust you completely. "

"Oh, Rube, you must understand one thing."

Connelly Fudge said, glancing at Professor Dumbledore, casually playing with the bowler hat in his hand.

"That was 50 years ago, and now we can only judge that the real murderer was a descendant with Slytherin blood. As for who it is, it is still being slowly investigated-after all, The marriage relationship in the magic world is too complicated. Unless the murderer comes to us, the hope is very slim ... "

"Well, okay."

Hagrid nodded sullenly, took parchment from Fudge, and looked at it carefully. The tone was excited and clear again, "Then I said, I can go to get my wand again, and join Hogwarts. I ’m continuing my studies ... "

"If you don't mind, Hagrid."

Dumbledore said with a smile, blinking flexibly, "And if I remember correctly, you still have four grades that you haven't completed, and of course, including an after-school assignment of deformity, I never gave it to me ... Of course, it does n’t matter if you do n’t want to participate. "

"No, no, Professor Dumbledore ~ ​​www.ltnovel.com ~ I will!"

Hagrid pulled out a large handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, sobbing with joy.

"Before my father died, I always thought I could finish my studies at Hogwarts. Unfortunately, until he died, he left with great regret. Professor, I really am so grateful ..."

When it came to this, Hagrid's eyes were already filled with tears, and even the handkerchief was too late to wipe — he never thought that he would still be able to rejoin Hogwarts one day.
